We often find ourselves caught in the cycle of knee-jerk reactions to the problems that families are experiencing today.
While some of these issues are not new, the stresses of living with endemic COVID-19 have brought these challenges to the fore.
State of the Family: Bigger, Deeper & Stronger with Family is an invitation-only virtual gathering that provides insights into current and forecasted trends impacting the Family.
We ask the question - how can we effectively provide help for those in need while equipping families to be future-ready?
Join us as we facilitate these critical conversations and develop strategies amongst thought leaders and practitioners to get ahead of the problems affecting Family today.

WHY ARE THERE TWO SEPARATE TRACKS FOR THIS EVENT?
State of the Family (SOTF) started in 2015 with the objective of informing churches on the latest trends pertaining to the family.
This year being our 20th anniversary, we are inviting like-minded family champions in the community to attend so that SOTF’s offerings can benefit the wider society. The content and discussions during the main plenary session will remain community-friendly.
IF I'M A CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY LEADER, SHOULD I ATTEND THE CHURCH OR COMMUNITY TRACK?
You may choose to attend the Community track if your priority for this event is to explore how to better serve youths and families within your circle of influence.
You may choose to attend the Church track if you wish to apply your learning toward your church’s Youth/Family Life ministries.
